foes, he viii find that it will not hold out when

REGARDING the Pennsylvania Senatorship the
Philadelphia Times says: Colonel Quay will be
elected in January with the nearest approach to
unsnimity in his own party that has been ex-
hibited since the party was organized. q genera
ton ago. Since then the Republicans have elected
Simon Cameron, Edgar Cowan, David Wilmot
John Scott, J. Donald Cameron and John L Mitch
ell to the Senate. but all OF them had to face
fierce contests for the honor.
GENERAL LOGAN was partisan OF the vigorous
type. 81 hope said he, that every Republi
who asks to be retained by this Administration
will be turned 0utOf Office. / would rather help
10 kick out Republican than to help him to stay
in. would never humiliate myself to render
such man assistance. OF course, II he is asked to
remain because he is faithful public servant
that is another thing. tn he has a right to &C

II the Democratic leaders in Congress make their
party the peoples party the "so-calIed labor
party" will disappear. But if they refuse to do
that in our belief the "soealled labor party will
grow and increase and will be a very troublesome
and dangerous phenomenon to the Democratic
brethren in 1883. The shadow OF Henry George
hovers over the idlers faint hearts and disorgan-
izers in COngress-the CsrlIsles Morrisons and

THERE is not Republican soldier Senator from
any Of the States on the Pacific slope, and the
three soldier Senators of the North who achieved
national fame warriors are about to end their
terms, with no certainty of the reelection OF
either. General Joseph r. Hawley of Connecti-
cut; General w. ]. sewell, of New Jersey, and
General Benjamin Harrison, of Indiana, are all Of
the Northern soldiers of fame who remain in the
Senate, and they retire the 4th of March next.
General HaWley has Republican Legislature,
and certainly should be reelected, but there are
ominous movements against him, and his defeat
is possible. General Sewen has lost the New
Jersey Legislature, as General Harrison has lost
his battle in Indiana, although both are strug-
Cling to retrieve the disaster by legislative con-

MORALLY, it would be difficult for political
party to take more desperate stand than, while
supporting the present device of monopoly for the
taxation of the people, for the benefit of private
interests, to urge the abolition OF the tax upon
whisky and cigars. Practically, the scheme will
have prodigious strength in many quarters, and it
will require the united power of all who oppose
protective taxes, as well as all who oppose free
whisky, to defeat it. This issue is coming TO the
front in national politics with more rapidity than
the question of prohibition is, and it may be
found that the Prohibitionists, to escape free
whisky dispensation, wall be compelled in places
where such movements will be feasible to join
forces with the Democratic party in favor of free
food and clothing as against free whisky and to-
bacco The alliance would be an unusual one,
far the past history of parties is concerned;
but parties, like men, are apt to change, while
principles remain the ame.-Chicago Herald.
